Maverick Viñales has shared his disappointment over a recent misunderstanding with KTM, which ended with the cancellation of his initial contract in the MotoGP championship. The Spanish rider confirmed that, after signing the agreement, he was informed that it was not valid, leaving him with a sense of frustration.
Currently, Viñales is close to ending his career in MotoGP, and he expressed his disconnection with the world of motorcycles. In a press conference at the Sachsenring circuit, he stated that he feels ‘out of this world’ after his experience with KTM, a brand he had trusted to compete with.
After the Assen Grand Prix, where he commented on his exclusion from the Brno race, Viñales was convinced that his time with KTM had come to an end. Recently he reiterated that discussions with the team have ceased, and he has no intention to continue negotiating.
When asked about his future, Viñales ruled out options in MotoGP, where most spots are already filled. He declared that right now he is not looking for alternatives in other categories and that his goal is to enjoy some well-deserved vacation.
Recently, the rider addressed how he went from signing a contract to its cancellation, explaining that despite his initial reluctance, he decided to sign out of faith in KTM’s engineers. His disappointment became evident when he discovered that his signature meant nothing, highlighting his emotional disconnection with the team.
With 2027 on the verge of being defined, Viñales’ future appears uncertain. However, his passion for motorcycles has not disappeared, with plans that include exploring other forms of competition, far beyond MotoGP.
